May Energy Usage

According to my report from Honeywell, our air conditioner had to run 11 hours more in the month of May than last year. System is 17 years old now, plus the average temps were 1 degree higher than last year. Our system struggles to maintain 74º during these hot triple digit days.

While Doppler Dave says we’ve had 6 triple digit days this year, Doppler Walt calls bullshit. Doppler Walt says we started hitting triple digits the last week in May and have hit them almost every day in June.

Time for a new HVAC system? Might as well do it before it has a chance to break down forcing us to go a week or two without AC.
